he has TO make himself rather ridiculous In

most pitiful ignorance as regards matters In
Ireland. The policy of the Government had
been successful. the National League had been
totally pulverized. and Ireland was pacified.

Government has committed murders there
and has stirred mp most violent hatreds, and.
far from being pulverized. the greatest enthu-
sissm and determination have been awakened
